Well, there are multiple things being discussed there. I'm not sure what will be "quite a task". If you mean the UGTV site, it's already up and running and has over 20 presentations already online. If you mean your last point, I'll get to that in a moment.
To your point 1, sure. A group can't well use Breeze for a remote visitor or remote attendees, nor can they record using it, if they don't have net access. That's a given. Still, my experience in speaking at hundreds of user groups meetings over the years suggests that it's as often available as not (and likely more available now than in the past). But, sure, not everyone will be able to leverage Breeze "live". As for your point 2, I'm not sure what you mean. Are you referring to the prospect of using Breeze presentations in a user group setting? Or watching them on your own? If your point is that a recorded presentation lacks some for the give and take that often takes place before/after a presentation, again, that may be so. Still, don't let "better" be the enemy of "good enough". :-) If you can see a recorded presentation on a topic that you might not otherwise get someone to present on, that's got to be better than nothing. As for organizing "a separate online event for those who are unable to attend cfug's", well, I wasn't making any call for that myself, but sure, if it works for you or others, it may be worth a try. My goal was simply to help those in a current group or in none at all. /charlie http://www.carehart.org/blog/ -----Original Message----- From: cfaussie@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gareth Edwards Sent: Monday, October 02, 2006 5:35 PM To: cfaussie@googlegroups.com Subject: [cfaussie] Re: Remotely attending? Recording the talk? (was RE: [cfaussie] REMINDER: CFUG QLD 6:30 pm, Tuesday, October 3 2006) Hi Charlie, I think organising something like this may be quite a task. Couple of things that spring to mind. 1) Location of the event may not be able to provide internet access to private laptops used for presentations. 2) A lot of the time presentations used are pre-recorded, normally with some additional information at the end or during the presentation. Having said that, maybe I could organise a separate online event for those who are unable to attend cfug's. Only if I get enough interest.
